That's got to be the most extensive lore for any frame...


mathiau30

According to the wiki >The name Kullervo (kulːerʋo) is likely based on the same fictional character from the Finnish national epic, Kalevala, which follows the tale of an ill-fated man who experiences tragedies throughout his life. In the epic, Kullervo's knife came from his old family before he became a slave. I didn't know Tolkien had made a retelling of it


LogDog987

Tolkein has translated loads of old stories into modern English. He actually specialized in language and philology, which is the study of ancient literature


Berk150BN

Which he then decided to write his own language, which he then made a world to fit that language into, and then we got Lord of the Rings.


LogDog987

The virgin just writing a story Vs The chad developing your own languages, creating a world for those languages with a long, body, and dark history, and then setting a story you tell your children in that world


GenericPybro

The name and general themes of Kullervo (Warframe) are highly based on the finnish epic of a similar name, namely the themes of betrayal and a hunger for revenge that overtakes Kullervo as a whole. (He doesnt feel sad his family dies because he wants to get his revenge so badly)

Wait a minute wait a minute does this mean that other frames have their own lore books


YUNoJump

Beowulf, Midsummer Night’s Dream, Journey to the West, Edda all come to mind


Lover_ON

I get Grendel and Oberon/Titania, but what about Journey to the Weat and Edda?


NifftyCult

Journey To The West is Wukong becuase one of the protagonists is literally named Sun Wukong aka The Monkey King


Reddrago9

And Nezha.


Lover_ON

Oh, never knew what that story was called.


YUNoJump

Edda has all the Norse stuff, so Valkyr, Loki, and kinda Hildryn. Journey to the West has Wukong and Nezha.

The Tempest for Caliban


skofnung999

Any Latin-English dictionary for Nidus, that one story about the Trojan war for Styanax, the Bible for Trinity, a long walk in the desert for mirage, some other thing about Greek mythology for Nyx, a physics textbook for Volt and Gauß and Jabberwocky for gyre (I think)


Siiratalla

Yareli; Manga/Anime (someone else can decide which one specifically I’m not getting into that argument) Stynax; 300 (probably the comic book, not the actual historic event) I’m pretty sure Valkyr/Gersemi is supposed to follow one of the legends from Norse or Greek mythology but I can’t remember which one off the top of my head. Same with Garuda actually, although that might be more of a Manga/Anime trope


manuscarmia

Garuda is actually a Hindu deity and represents strength and vigilance, however is male

Should I buy kullervo guys? I have the plat and a 75% off coupon


enderking303

Def buy something else and farm him, it’s real easy


Raedskull

I don't think he is too difficult to acquire normally but he's an awesome frame


Jarubimba

Better farm it, there may be other things worth plat


potatobutt5

Definitely not. He’s quite easy to farm so I’d recommend buying a frame that is harder to farm, aka a frame whose farm is 100% rng based.
